FBI to Investigate Trump Related to Assassination Attempt

360_F_457421758_hsS2a4ROW0iEwnJBnoWBYkq3CB5AY3Y4.jpg
Is this your proof? Really?
 
By saying that there was no assassination attempt, that Trump was never injured, and that the whole event was done with the express purpose of influencing the election. Heck, Joe stepped down after this happened so I guess they could call it a coup attempt.
Wray said no such thing! I don't care if it was shrapnel or a bullet it doesn't change the danger this was ans Wray was clear about that.....the right's collective brain is toast
 
By saying that there was no assassination attempt
By wondering if it was shrapnel from a bullet rather than a bullet, it means there was no assassination attempt? Who made that ridiculous claim?

, that Trump was never injured

By wondering if it was shrapnel from a bullet rather than a bullet, it would mean the whole thing was a false flag to shore up sympathy votes for Trump? Who has tried to make that ridiculous claim?

The whole shrapnel theory doesn't make sense to me anyway, because I don't see anything nearby that it could've bounced off of.

I'm not sure why it even matters though. Whether his ear was bloodied from a bullet or from shrapnel, either way it came from the gun of a would-be assassin and can be lethal. And either way, the SS screwed up royally.
 
The FBI isn't trying to "investigate" anything. Based on Wray's testimony before congress he CLEARLY indicated that the "assassination attempt" is mere projection that hasn't been proved and, as such, is a likely conspiracy to influence the voting public. Trump should probably be jailed during the investigation just so that he can't spread any more disinformation. It's the only way to save democracy.
If he CLEARLY said that I presume you can EASILY post his ACTUAL comments that prove yours? Should be REALLY simple.

What else could it be? There is nothing in the area of his head that would create a linear trajectory like that. Shrapnel would not create what you see in the photo. Plus it matches approximate heights between the shooter and where Trump was positioned.
 
So you deny photographic and video evidence at the scene?

He's ditched the theatrical bandage so his ear has been plainly visible in public this weak. He wasn't hit with a bullet.

Lying about it in the first place was bizarre, but trying to keep the ruse going now is borderline insane.
 
Bad mosquito bite? It’s quite obvious it was a bullet which the path is caught on film.

The propagandists of the Left HAVE to figure out a way to downplay, or better yet, make it somehow Trump's fault/responsibility.

Unfortunately, there was a shooter, there were deaths, we have that picture you reference which is NOT any trajectory of "shrapnel" but rather the trajectory of a bullet.

The Left will grasp at any straw, and both the FBI and the DOJ likely has members who would prefer it if Trump doesn't get re-elected. They KNOW he will "clean house" after learning his lesson that he cannot trust the Administrative State to serve him honorably. That was proven during his first term in office.

I agree, it looks like it's from a bullet, but we don't know for sure. That's what the FBI wants to find out. But what I can say for sure is, until the investigation is over, you're claim is just speculation. It's logical speculation, but still unproven. Agree?

I don’t go by conspiracy theories. Do you think the moon landing is not real either?

This is the 3rd time, so perhaps you don't understand why I'm showing you this: this bullet did not hit him. It is too low. The wound was on his upper right ear lobe.
Rewatch the video. When you hear the first shot, Trump's hand was down, not like in this photo. Then his hand snapped up quickly to grab his ear, right around the time you hear the 2nd shot. That must be when this image was taken. We're looking at the 2nd bullet, after he already got grazed by the 1st bullet.

So even if the above image wasn't Photoshopped (a distinct possibility), it's the 2nd bullet we're seeing here. Not the first one, which must have been the one that got him because he was already reacting to it by reaching for his ear.

"Trump's ear is obviously fine" isn't a conspiracy theory, it's an observation. He got nicked by some glass or something during the shooting attempt and absurdly decided to lie about getting shot. Just bizarre to torch that good will in such a dumb way.

Not speculation just simple geometry. That bullet did not strike Trump. That does not mean another did not because the shooter fired 8 total rounds.

Not photoshopped, it's legit. And yes, if he did get grazed it was the 1st shot not the one caught in the photo.

Do you think the FBI should stop investigating and just accept your conclusions? How is it you are certain about how shrapnel behaves? Or is this another, Trump is a victim, thingy?

Bottom line, based on the Wray testimony before congress and this report it appears that the FBI believes Trump made the whole thing up and is now investigating him for falsification of injuries and election interference.
The Newsweek missive doesn't sound like your statement. It sounds more like they want to interview the victim to figure out more about what happened, and maybe lessons learned as well.
 
How would that downplay the assasination [sic] attempt? Shrapnel can kill too.
Only place shrapnel could have come from would have been a teleprompter and both were seen to be completely intact after the shooting. it was a bullet.

One poster said that this photo was taken “from an angle.”

The photographer is a few feet below Trump. If you account for “the angle,” the path of this bullet is below Trump’s shoulder blades.
I’m not disputing that there was an attempt on Trump’s life, what I am saying is that the Trump camp has handled this in a very sloppy manner.
 
They are trying to downplay the assasination attempt by saying it was shrapnel. We have a clear path of the bullet by photograph.

How is that downplaying? He was indisputably shot at. That he was or wasn't actually grazed by a bullet in no way reduces or increase the seriousness of the event.

You guys need to stop playing vicarious victim in everything.
 
Not speculation just simple geometry. That bullet did not strike Trump. That does not mean another did not because the shooter fired 8 total rounds.

The most plausible explanation is the bullet hit his ear. The only other explanation is the bullet hit something else causing shrapnel from the bullet or object. We have not heard any explanation of any shrapnel effect by law enforcement so far.
 
Because the FBI (along with all the other intel and justice agencies), since the beginning of his administration, has been making a concerted effort to put him in jail for damned near anything. If Trump fails to dot an "i" on a written statement they will hook him up on a 1001 violation.

They’ve actually afforded him undue patience and leniency. If he were ANYONE else, he would already be in jail on the documents stuff and the coup

. . . and the leftists have the leftist lamestream media in their pocket / on their side, to parrot it enough to make it the accepted 'truth'.

I'm tellin' ya', it's the 'Ministry of Truth' as in the novel 1984.

These are just inconvenient facts to be overridden with propaganda.

The Left will grasp at any straw, and both the FBI and the DOJ likely has members who would prefer it if Trump doesn't get re-elected.

Agreed.
